South Korea building the largest ever offshore wind farm
- zshahan 16y agoSouth Korea might be the next clean energy giant. while we put a lot of attention on China and Europe, South Korea is making some huge steps forward...
- Jabbles 16y agoWhen they quote the wind farm as 2500MW, it's probably its theoretical capacity. I don't know enough about South Korea to say how close the actual production will be, but I'll bet it's actually <1GW. This sounds great, and it really is, but don't forget that this is the equivalent of one nuclear power station, and South Korea requires ~40GW in total.
